Gone Fishin'

We can't make a trip to Nebraska without a little fishing ;)

Now I know where Matt gets his serious face from when someone tells him to smile ;)

One Happy Pa ;)

Today Riley Jo went to Matt and asked him if she could shoot Dustin's BB gun. Matt got the biggest grin on his face and very calmly said "sure".

Riley Jo had a great time and said that she wants to do more shooting:) She may need a gun that fits her better tho! She informed me that there is a little pink camo bb gun in town...I think she was giving me hints! lol

Rainy day fun

Dustin had one of his friends over the other weekend, and even the cold and rain couldn't keep these two boys inside!

Zain is Dustin's new best friend and the 2 boys get along great. Zain rides steers in the Cody Night Rodeo and now Dustin is convinced that he needs to give it a try! The rodeo just started last night and Matt is busy AI'ing for the next week, but when Matt is done, he will take Dusty in and let him give it a try! So stay tuned for updates and pictures hopefully!

Until the rodeo starts, they'll just have to make do with Matt as the steer!

Even Riley Jo had to get in on some of the evenings events!

One last piece of advice from Zain...

I'm happy to report that there were no broken bones or major injuries this go-round!! LOL

Future Super Star

Riley Jo had a friend over the other night and she informed me that when she grows up, she wants to be a super star! She even has a "super star walk"! It is too darn cute!

When Matt saw the pic above, he informed me that he's gonna need more guns!!! She is definitely outgrowing her little girl stage!

Like Father Like Son

I'm putting it on the record now that I think when Dusty grows up, he's going to be a mechanic and/or farmer. This boy LOVES tearing things apart just so he can put them back together! Working on or driving a tractor, pickup or any piece of equipment, just puts him on cloud 9!

She's a Brownie!!!

This year Riley Jo graduated from Daisy's to Brownie's in Girl Scouts. She is sooo excited that now she is in the older girl troop and they will be able to do more then just art and craft projects!

Her troop...

The lovely brown sash...

She told me "I already feel older."

Time for a new bed

Colt has grown so fast and so much, he is now taller then Butch and has officially outgrown his puppy bed. I better get on the ball and get a bigger one! Matt seems to be pretty impressed with the pup so far. He gets to tag along on short rides and does good. Seems to be a good traveler. He wants to get the cows, but Matt won't let him yet.
